Being a scientist could have been so fun and satisfying
“Do you love being a scientist? Or do you love the IDEA of being a scientist?” - something I’ve been thinking a lot about recently…
Plenty of people thought that I will be a scientist but I did one standard deviation calculation for a test and noped out of the idea.
remember kids: being a scientist is just fucking around according to a plan, then writing down what you found out.
I’ve worked as a scientist for around 10 years (and as a research programmer in various labs for 5-6 years before that) and have never done a standard deviation calculation.
Because the automated tools do it for you, right?
Right???
